Life In Music

Music is a huge part of most everyone's lives. It puts our emotions, thoughts, and feelings into words when we can't. I just wanted to show my life recently in music, so take a listen.

"I Need You" By Relient K 

I kind of put this as my relationship with God, me needing him so much more than I know now or ever will. My favorite part is when they say:

"I have not been abandoned no I have not been deserted and I have not been forgotten." 

It cries out for me "Someone someone please sine a light into the black wade through the depths and bring me back" 

"Forgiven" By Relient K 

It kind of talks about how "We're all guilty of the same things" but "I know that I have been forgiven"

I have a tough time controlling myself. My thoughts, my words, my actions but "I know that I have been forgiven, and I just hope you can forgive me too."  

"Devastation And Reform" By Relient K 

I can honestly relate to this song. It talks about "I feel like I was born for devastation and reform" Kind of like we can be doing so well in life and then it can all fall apart. But also "Thank you God for giving me the insight so that I might make these wrongs right...'cause failure is a blessing in disguise." It also talks about our sinful nature, going back to that over and over. For me it reminds me of my past, "Its taking me down a road, a road down which I swore I'd never go...I sit thinking of God knows what...'Cause I've got enough problems without creating more." 

"Faking My Own Suicide" By Relient K 

We've all been there. 

"Bite My Tongue" By Relient K 

As you know I have a tough time controlling what I say so this song an totally relate to me. I just need to listen and "Bite My Tongue...Because sometimes I say things that I wish I could take back" 

"I Shall Believe" By Matt Brouwer 

This is actually a Sheryl Crow song, with some lyrics changed for this version. This is just a really good song, and kind of brings me to the place where I need to be. 

"I know you're on to me that I only come home when I'm so alone, but I do believe." Totally sums me up right there! I hate to say it but I tend to forget about God when everything is fine, and its not until I'm so low and I can't do anything that I finally come back. 

"Not everything is going to be the way you think it ought to be it seems like every time I try to make it right it all comes down on me." I try to do things on my own, and it just comes back and bites me in the butt. 

"Please say honestly you won't give up on me" 

Yeah, I know I've been on a weird Relient K kick lately but hey its not my fault they're AMAZING! So that's kind of my life in songs right now, I hope you enjoyed it.
